Thirteen different teams have been crowned as conference champions, including five in each of the , , , and seasons. On the academic side, more than 1,300 studentathletes have earned Academic All-Big Ten honors in Alvarez 13-year tenure. Since , UW student-athletes have achieved at least a 3.0 cumulative GPA. At the end of spring 2016, the cumulative GPA for all student-athletes was In , eight sports either set or tied their highest term or cumulative team grade-point averages ever. Five years ago, under Alvarez s direction, UW Athletics created the Badgers Give Back program. A community relations platform meant to provide direction for the department s community projects, streamline the request process for appearances, increase publicity of student-athlete outreach efforts and ensure compliance with NCAA regulations, it has become a staple of the student-athlete experience at UW. In , more than 600 student-athletes participated in Badgers Give Back activities. Alvarez was appointed in the spring of 2008 as one of the chairs of the NCAA's Football Academic Enhancement Group, which was formed to review and recommend improvements for the APR rating. He also serves on the NCAA Football Issues Committee and was a member of the College Football Playoff Committee in its first three years. In addition, Alvarez was named Person of the Year by the Big Ten Club of Southern California in Alvarez was voted into the state of Wisconsin Athletic Hall of Fame and the Rose Bowl Hall of Fame in 2009 and was inducted into the UW Athletics Hall of Fame in Elected to the College Football Hall of Fame, Alvarez guided Wisconsin s football fortunes for 16 seasons ( ). He has been at the forefront of the revival of the Badger athletic program during his entire tenure in Madison. He piloted Wisconsin to three Big Ten and Rose Bowl titles (including backto-back in ) en route to becoming the winningest football coach in school history ( record). In December, 2012 he returned to the sidelines and guided the Badgers against Stanford in the 2013 Rose Bowl. Two years later, he came back one last time to lead UW to a upset win over Auburn in the 2015 Outback Bowl. Alvarez was just the 10th coach in Big Ten history to win 100 games at one conference institution. The 1993 national coach of the year, he was a two-time (1993 and 1998) Big Ten Coach of the Year and a finalist for ESPN s coach of the decade (1990s) honor. He received the Victor Award s 1999 National Coach of the Year accolade and was the 2004 AFCA Region 3 Coach of the Year. Alvarez also was awarded the 2017 Paul Bear Bryant Lifetime Achievement Award. Alvarez retired from coaching at the conclusion of the 2005 season in order to concentrate solely on running the Division of Intercollegiate Athletics. He has made a lasting impression on the Wisconsin sports scene. His well-documented turnaround of the once-moribund Badger football program has helped to allow the school s entire athletic department to blossom into one of the nation s finest and most respected organizations in college sports. When Alvarez arrived in Madison in 1990, Wisconsin had compiled a 9-36 record during the previous four seasons and attendance at Camp Randall Stadium had dipped to an average of 41,734 per game (54 percent of capacity). The program sorely needed a boost and got it when new Director of Athletics Pat Richter hired Alvarez from Notre Dame, where he had been an assistant coach under Lou Holtz. Over the next 16 seasons Alvarez transformed the football program and, subsequently, the culture of athletics at the UW. The success of the football program ignited and heightened interest in Badgers sports. Alvarez s list of accomplishments at Wisconsin is remarkable. Consider just a few of the most notable: winningest coach in school history (record of ,.614) coached three Big Ten and Rose Bowl champions only Big Ten coach ever to win the Rose Bowl in consecutive seasons 2

6 Head Coach Paul Chryst Wisconsin football continues to thrive under Paul Chryst s leadership. In his first season as head coach at his alma mater, Chryst led Wisconsin to a 10-3 record in 2015 a run that concluded with a victory over USC in the Holiday Bowl. For an encore, he directed the Badgers to an 11-3 finish in 2016, including a win in the Cotton Bowl and Big Ten West Division championship. Chryst was named the 2016 Hayes-Schembechler Big Ten Coach of the Year and for leading the Badgers to an 11-win season against a schedule that included six matchups with top 10-ranked teams was a national finalist for both The Dodd Trophy and Paul Bear Bryan Coach of the Year awards. A former Wisconsin player and assistant coach and a Madison native, Chryst returned to his roots when he was named the Badgers 30th head coach on Dec. 17, Since then, Chryst has become one of just four coaches in Big Ten history to post double-digit win totals in each of his first two seasons as head coach, joining Michigan legend Fielding Yost and current cotemporaries Jim Harbaugh of Michigan and Urban Meyer of Ohio State. Chryst s 21-6 (.778) overall record marks the best start by a Badgers coach through two seasons, and he is the first UW mentor to win consecutive bowl games to begin a tenure as head coach. He is 13-4 (.765) in Big Ten games, with only Ohio State (15-2) posting a better mark in league play over those two seasons. Including two seasons at the helm of the program and seven years as the Badgers offensive coordinator, Chryst has overseen some of the nation s best units on both sides of the ball. Across his first two seasons as head coach, Wisconsin has boasted one of the nation s truly elite defenses. The Badgers allowed just 14.7 points per game over the 2015 and 2016 seasons, a mark that ranked No. 2 nationally over that span and trailed only Alabama s mark of 14.1 points allowed per contest. Over those two years, Wisconsin also ranked No. 4 in total defense (285.6 yards per game), No. 3 in rushing defense (97.1 ypg) and No. 3 in pass efficiency defense (102.1). During Chryst s seven years as offensive coordinator from , Wisconsin averaged 34.1 points and yards of total offense per game. Both marks were the best in the Big Ten over that span and powered the Badgers to conference titles in 2010 and 2011, remarkable offensive seasons in which UW averaged 41.5 and 44.1 points per game, respectively. Wisconsin had won 10 or more games in a season just three times before Chryst joined the Badgers coaching staff as offensive coordinator in In his nine seasons on staff since, the Badgers have posted CHRYST AT A GLANCE Hometown: Madison, Wis. Head Coaching Record: (5 Seasons) Record at Wisconsin: 21-6 (2 Seasons) Bowl Record: 3-1 (.750) Birthdate: Nov. 17, 1965 Education: Wisconsin, 1988 (bachelor s, political science); West Virginia, 1990 (master s, educational administration) Playing Experience: Wisconsin, (quarterback, tight end, special teams) Family: Wife, Robin; daughters, Katy and JoJo; son, Danny double-digit win totals seven times posting an overall record of (.765). Before spending the previous three seasons as the head coach at Pittsburgh, where he led the Panthers to three consecutive bowl appearances, Chryst oversaw the most explosive offenses in UW history as the Badgers offensive coordinator. During those seven seasons, Wisconsin claimed a pair of Big Ten titles while piling up a (.761) overall record. During his last two seasons as UW s offensive coordinator (2010 and 2011), the Badgers set a multitude of school and Big Ten records. With current Indianapolis Colts quarterback Scott Tolzien at the helm in 2010, UW averaged more than 40.0 points a game for the first time in school history, ranking fifth in the country at 41.5 points per contest. On the way to their first Big Ten title since 1999, the Badgers scored at least 70 points three times. As a team, Wisconsin set a Big Ten record with a completion percentage of 73.2 percent while also tying the conference record for rushing touchdowns (48). Individually, Tolzien won the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award and left tackle Gabe Carimi won the Outland Trophy. Running back John Clay was a Doak Walker Award finalist while tight end Lance Kendricks and left guard John Moffitt joined Carimi as first-team All-Americans. The following season, UW did the unthinkable and improved upon that dynamic season. In the one and only year they were united, Chryst and quarterback Russell Wilson combined on a season for the ages. Wilson set the FBS record for pass efficiency (191.8) in addition to school records for passing yards (3,175) and passing touchdowns (33, second-most in Big Ten history). Not to be outdone, junior running back Montee Ball etched his own name in the NCAA record book, tying Barry Sanders singleseason record with 39 touchdowns. Ball ran for 1,923 yards and was a Heisman Trophy finalist. For the second-straight season, the Badgers had three first-team All-Americans with center Peter Konz and guard Kevin Zeitler joining Ball. The Badgers averaged a school-record 44.1 points per game, sixth-best in 4

8 Assistant Coaches Joe Rudolph Offensive Coordinator/OL Joe Rudolph is in his third season as Wisconsin s associate head coach and offensive coordinator, marking a homecoming for the UW alumnus who has won Big Ten championships with the Badgers both as a player and assistant coach. Rudolph returned to Madison in 2015 following a three-year stint as offensive coordinator and tight ends coach at Pittsburgh under UW head coach Paul Chryst. A former Badgers captain who helped Wisconsin to Big Ten and Rose Bowl titles in the 1993 season, Rudolph also was UW s tight ends coach from 2008 to 2011, winning two more Big Ten crowns with the most prolific offenses in school history. He then followed Chryst to Pittsburgh and ran the Panthers offense from , also serving as interim head coach for the 2015 Armed Forces Bowl. Since returning to UW, Rudolph has helped guide the Badgers to a combined 21-6 record, a Big Ten West Division title and back-to-back bowl wins in the Holiday Bowl and Cotton Bowl. He also mentored a first-round NFL draft pick in left tackle Ryan Ramczyk, who earned consensus first-team All-America honors as the cornerstone of a Badgers offense that found its footing in Ramczyk was selected by the New Orleans Saints in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft. Under Rudolph's direction, Ramczyk and Co. helped pave the way for first-team All-Big Ten running back Corey Clement to average rushing yards per game and score 15 touchdowns. As a team, the Badgers averaged rushing yards per game in With a pair of quarterbacks sharing the duties, UW also ranked fourth in the Big Ten in passing efficiency, at Freshman Alex Hornibrook (1,262) and senior Bart Houston (1,245) combined to give UW a pair of 1,000-yard passers. Little came easy for Rudolph s unit during the first season of his return to Madison, with the Badgers forced to use eight different starting lineups on an offensive line beset by injuries. By the end of the 2015 season, Rudolph was using four redshirt freshmen to complement senior All-Big Ten selection Tyler Marz. The payoff for one of Rudolph s best coaching jobs wsa a 10-3 season RUDOLPH AT A GLANCE Hometown: Belle Vernon, Pa.

Senior WR Alex Erickson earned firstteam All-Big Ten honors after making 77 catches for 978 yards, while senior QB Joel Stave became UW s all-time winningest quarterback while setting school records for passing attempts and completions. The Badgers averaged a school-record 32.2 passing attempts per game. UW s performance came on the heels of Pittsburgh enjoying its most productive year offensively under Rudolph in 2014, averaging 31.8 points and yards per game. Pitt ranked No. 3 in the ACC in total offense and No. 5 in the league in scoring offense. Much of that production came from sophomore RB James Conner, who earned 2014 ACC Player of the Year honors by rushing for 1,765 yards and an ACC single-season record 26 touchdowns. In all, Rudolph s offensive players at Pitt earned a total of 12 all-conference honors. That included two-time All-ACC performer Tyler Boyd, who earned Freshman All-America honors in Much like the offenses he was involved with at Wisconsin, Rudolph s Pitt units controlled the clock and rarely turned the ball over. The Panthers committed the fifth-fewest turnovers in the FBS from , with a total of just 46. They also ranked 14th nationally over that span with an average time of possession of 31:51. In his first coaching stint with the Badgers, Rudolph contributed to the two highest-scoring offenses in school history, with the Badgers averaging 44.1 points per game in 2011 and 41.5 points per game in 2010 en route to back-to-back Big Ten championships. He coached four UW tight ends that earned playing time in the NFL in Travis Beckum, Garrett Graham, Lance Kendricks and Jake Byrne. Beckum was taken in the third round of the 2009 NFL Draft by the New York Giants, Kendricks was a second-round pick of the St. Louis Rams in 2011 and Graham was selected in the fourth round by the Houston Texans in Kendricks was a firstteam All-American and finalist for the John Mackey Award as a senior in 2010, leading the 6

Jim Leonhard Defensive Coordinator/DBs Few could be considered more knowledgeable on the ins and outs of Wisconsin s defense than Jim Leonhard, a 2015 inductee to the UW Athletic Hall of Fame who was one of the most successful players to ever patrol the Badgers defensive backfield. Leonhard joined the Badgers coaching staff for the 2016 season as defensive backs coach, a matter of months after becoming a Hall of Famer. Less than a year later, on Feb. 2, 2017, he was named UW's defensive coordinator. Leonhard s impact on the Badgers secondary was immediate in His unit was instrumental in the Badgers grabbing 22 interceptions, a total that ranked second in the FBS and marked UW s highest output since 2002, when Leonhard himself recorded a school-record 11 of UW s 22 picks. The secondary contributed to an overall effort that saw the Badgers finish the season ranked No. 4 nationally in scoring defense (15.6 points per game), LEONHARD AT A GLANCE Hometown: Tony, Wis.

Triumphs over No. 5-ranked LSU in the inaugural college game at historic Lambeau Stadium in Green Bay and No. 12 Western Michigan in the Cotton Bowl Classic bookended a season that saw UW post a 6-2 record away from Camp Randall Stadium. The Badgers finished with a No. 8 ranking in the final AP poll, claimed the seventh 11-win season in school history and made their fourth appearance in the six-year history of the Big Ten Football Championship Game. With consensus first-team All-American and firstround NFL draft pick Ryan Ramczyk anchoring things at left tackle, UW enjoyed a resurgence of its running game as senior Corey Clement rushed for 1,375 yards and 15 touchdowns. The Badgers also found success under center with Chryst balancing a quarterback tandem of senior Bart Houston and freshman Alex Hornibrook. Defense was once again a driver for UW, with the unit led by first-team All-American and first-round NFL pick T.J. Watt at outside linebacker. The Badgers boasted All-Big Ten players at every level of the unit in defensive end Conor Sheehy, outside linebacker Vince Biegel, inside linebackers Jack Cichy and T.J. Edwards, cornerback Sojourn Shelton and safeties D Cota Dixon and Leo Musso. UW allowed only 15.6 points per game to rank fourth nationally in scoring defense and also posted top-10 rankings in total defense (301.4 yards per game), rushing defense (98.8 yards per game) and pass efficiency defense (106.9). The Badgers also led all Power Five programs with 22 interceptions. Some notes on 2016: The Badgers scored four wins over teams in the top 12 of Associated Press poll (No. 5 LSU, No. 7 Nebraska, No. 8 Michigan State and No. 12 Western Michigan) UW won the Big Ten West Division championship for the second time in three seasons of the league's current divisional alignment.

284 Wisconsin Football Glossary Ameche, Alan The Horse Born in Italy as Lino Dante Ameche, the future Heisman Trophy winner changed his name to Alan at age 16. Lino, in his mind, was not rugged enough. Widely respected for his strength as a youth, he won the light heavyweight Golden Gloves novice boxing championship of Kenosha by default. All of his rivals dropped out after learning Ameche had entered the tournament. During his college recruitment, he was being heavily pressured to attend Notre Dame by Fred Miller, the philanthropic owner of Milwaukee s Miller Brewing Co. Wisconsin partisans, however, threatened a boycott against the buying and consumption of Miller beer if Ameche attended Notre Dame. Under threat of boycott, Miller backed off and Ameche signed with Wisconsin. In 1953, when rule changes made it necessary for him to be an all-purpose player, Ameche played defense with such ferocity that he ended up playing 55 minutes or more in each game, prompting a nickname, The Iron Horse. Ameche, drafted by Baltimore, eventually turned down a lucrative offer to join the pro wrestling tour and signed with the Colts. He led the NFL in rushing his first season and was named Rookie of the Year. Ameche died following heart surgery in 1988 at the age of 55. Artificial Turf The artificial turf at Camp Randall Stadium was first installed in 1968 when Wisconsin became the second school in the nation to install Tartan Turf. Designed by the 3M Company, the original turf cost $210,000 and was funded by the UW Parking and Transportation Board in exchange for permission to convert practice fields on the north end of Camp Randall into a 500-car parking lot. The initial surface turned black in some areas when the green fiber tips broke off, so 3M sprayed the field green for the 1969 season. Camp Randall Stadium s playing surface was replaced prior to Wisconsin s 1998 Big Ten championship season. At the same time, the school replaced the playing surface in the McClain Athletic Center, too. During the summer of 2003, Wisconsin contracted with FieldTurf to install its product in Camp Randall Stadium and the McClain Center. The FieldTurf product is the playing surface of choice for a number of major college and professional stadiums. The turf includes a sand and ground up rubber base that leads to excellent drainage in wet conditions and a soft, non-abrasive condition to cushion falls. Yardage numerals and hash marks are glued in, and the red endzone names and center Motion W were manufactured according to UW color specs and added in the fall of The field inside Camp Randall was replaced with new FieldTurf surface prior to the start of the 2012 season. Badgers Nickname The team s nickname, Badgers, was borrowed from the state of Wisconsin. The territory was dubbed the Badger State, not because of animals in the region, but rather an association with lead miners in the 1820s. Prospectors came to the state looking for minerals. Without shelter in the winter, the miners had to live like badgers in tunnels burrowed into hillsides. Bakken, Jim Jim Bakken, a former kicker with the St. Louis Cardinals, set a UW record with six field goal attempts vs. Minnesota in Bakken served as an administrator in the Badger athletic department before his retirement in Band caps When a Badger team wins an athletic contest, members of the band turn their hats around and wear them backwards. The practice started in the 1920s to symbolize the band looking back at the victory in days when they marched out with the departing. Bucky Badger Badgers in various forms have been recognized as the school mascot for decades. The version currently known as Bucky, sporting a cardinal and white letter sweater, was first drawn in 1940 by artist Art Evans. At that time, the badger went by names like Benny, Buddy, Bernie, Bobby and Bouncey. Art Lentz, the department s publicity director, had the idea to bring the mascot to life. The original badger mascot was too vicious to control. On more than one occasion, the live badger escaped handlers before a sideline hero recaptured the animal with a flying tackle. It was decided in the interest of fan and player safety that Wisconsin s mascot be retired to the Madison Zoo. The Badger Yearbook replaced the live badger with a small raccoon named Regdab (badger backwards) and passed it off as a badger in a raccoon coat. In 1949, a student in the university s art department, Connie Conrad, was commissioned to mold a paper-mache badger head. Gymnast and cheerleader, Bill Sagal, of Plymouth, Wis., was directed by homecoming chair Bill Sachse, to wear the outfit at the homecoming game. A contest was staged to name the popular mascot. The winner was Buckingham U. Badger, or Bucky. The name appar- 282

285 ently came from the lyrics in a song which encouraged the football team to buck right through that line. Bucky Badger has persevered through the years, even surviving a threat by then assistant attorney general, Howard Koop, in He suggested that Bucky be replaced by Henrietta Holstein, a loveable cow. Koop argued that kids love cows. A generation could grow up supporting the university and Henrietta Holstein. Koop s effort to overthrow Bucky failed. Bucky even survived a cameo appearance by former Sports Illustrated writer Rick Telander. In preparation for a book about the athletic department, Telander wore Bucky s costume at a 1991 volleyball game. Telander overcame terminal claustrophobia in his appearance. Bud Song An integral part of any Wisconsin band performance is the playing of the Bud song. The tune is a spinoff of the song You ve Said It All, a jingle with words and music originally written by Steve Karmen for Budweiser beer commercials. Copyrighted by Sandlee Publishing Corporation in 1970, the song has become legendary at the University because of its polka-like rhythm. Band director Michael Leckrone said the song s popularity got started at a 1975 hockey game. The wanted to hear a polka, he said. I didn t have any polkas. We had, just by accident, this beer commercial in the tunes we play. I told the band if we substituted the word Wisconsin for Budweiser it would work. Leckrone said the song became a football tradition after a 1978 come-from-behind victory over Oregon. Wisconsin was behind by three touchdowns, and the was really dead. I played the song to get everyone pepped up. About 20 seconds after that, Wisconsin scored a TD. I played it again, and Wisconsin scored another touchdown. From then on, the band could never play enough Bud, said Leckrone. Colors The University of Wisconsin Athletic Department s official colors are Cardinal and White. PMS 200 is the designated color of the cardinal. Fifth Quarter The Wisconsin band has become nationally famous for its post-game celebration called the Fifth Quarter. Win or lose, fans sing, dance and cheer with the band as they play traditional favorites, like On, Wisconsin and the Bud song. Originally, the post-game concert was designed to give the fans something to listen to on their way out of the stadium, but it developed into a post-game party as the band built in audience participation activities. Graduating Law Students At the homecoming game, graduating law students throw canes over the crossbar of the goal post in a pre-game ceremony. If students catch their cane, legend claims they will win their first case. If the cane is dropped, the case will be lost. The custom originated at Harvard and came to the UW-Madison in Hard Rocks The 1951 Wisconsin defense, known as the Hard Rocks, led the country in total defense (154.8 per game) and was second in rushing defense (66.8). That defense allowed only 5.9 points per game and actually outscored the opponents for the season. The defense was so terrorizing that the athletic department received a letter from one fan asking Wisconsin to punt on first down so he could see more of the defensive platoon. Eight of the nine seniors on the Hard Rocks scored in their careers. The ninth, Bill Lane, came close. With Indiana backed up deep in its own territory for a punt, the seniors told Lane they would refrain from rushing in order to form a wedge, or meatchopper, for him to run behind and score. Much to the seniors dismay, freshman Don Voss missed the call and blocked the punt. After the season, the defensive platoon challenged the offense in a charity game with one interesting twist. The offensive team could have the ball all the time, since the defense felt it could outscore its opponents even without the ball. Heartland Trophy The hotly and evenly contested Wisconsin- Iowa football series was missing just one thing until 2004: a trophy for the annual winner. The Heartland Trophy is the statue of a bull that measures 30 inches tall, 36 inches long and 18 inches deep. It was designed and produced by artist Frank Strub, a former Iowa football player living in Des Moines. The trophy is a terrific opportunity to further showcase a great Midwestern college football rivalry, said UW Director of Athletics Barry Alvarez. Playing for the Heartland Trophy adds another dimension to what is already a highly anticipated competition for college football bragging rights. A fake punt from Brad Nortman and a touchdown run from Montee Ball with just over a minute left gave the Badgers a comeback victory at Iowa in 2010, giving UW possession of the Heartland Trophy for the first time since The win tied the all-time series up at Hirsch, Elroy Crazylegs Though he only played one season in Madison, Hirsch s legacy grew through 18 years as athletic director and many more as a goodwill ambassador. Hirsch was first tagged Crazylegs on Sept. 26, 1942, after a 60-yard touchdown run vs. Notre Dame prompted a local writer to say, His crazy legs

286 were gyrating. After leaving Wisconsin, he starred for nine seasons with the Los Angeles Rams. During those days in L.A., he kept busy by making three movies, including Crazylegs, All-American in which he portrayed himself. After retiring as a player, he worked in the Rams front office before returning to Madison as athletic director from His No. 40, the number he wore at every stop in his football career but one, is retired at Wisconsin. Because of a mandatory league numbering system he wore No. 80 (double-40) for the Chicago Rockets, but had the No. 40 stitched on the inside of his jersey. Hirsh passed away on Jan. 28, 2004 of natural causes. There was never a more loved and admired ambassador for Badger Sports than Elroy Hirsch, said Athletic Director Pat Richter. He loved life, loved people, and loved the Badgers. Jump Around* Wisconsin s victory over Purdue on October 10, 1998, is memorable mostly for Boilermaker quarterback Drew Brees s NCAA-record 83 passing attempts (and NCAA record-tying 55 completions) and freshman Jamar Fletcher s 52-yard interception return for a touchdown in the third quarter that provided the winning margin. The game is memorable, however, for another reason: it was the beginning of Jump Around. Kevin Kluender was in his second year as an assistant marketing director at Wisconsin that fall. Kluender s job at Badger home games was to cue up music and to work in conjunction with public address man Mike Mahnke. That season marked the debut of the student section race, a mock competition run on the stadium scoreboard in which the letters representing the student sections at Camp Randall Stadium (K, L, M, N, O and P) raced against each other. The race, always run at the end of the third quarter, was usually followed by music that Kluender selected. Ryan Sondrup, a former Badger football player and then volunteer in the athletic marketing office, had (along with some other Badgers) come up with a list of contemporary music to be played in the stadium during games. That evening Kluender chose Jump Around, a song released in 1992 by a group called House of Pain. I remember thinking maybe the students would get into it, Kluender recalled. I initially turned my back to the field while the song was playing, but I saw people in the press box pointing out to the field. I turned back around and it looked like popcorn popping. Indeed, the student section (which included Sondrup that night) had embraced the song by doing just what it said: jumping around. Since that game against Purdue, fans all over the stadium have taken to jumping to the hip-hop tune. Kluender, however, is not completely comfortable with taking credit for introducing Jump Around to Camp Randall Stadium. The song was already in our computer when I got to Wisconsin, Kluender said. I m sure it had been played before. But that Purdue game was the first time we did it in the format that we ve maintained over the years. *The preceding is an excerpt from Tales From The Wisconsin Badgers, written by Justin Doherty and published in 2005 by Sports Publishing LLC of Champaign, Ill. Marek, Billy The three-time, first-team, all-big Ten running back wasn t recruited to play high school football because he had Osgood Schlatter disease (a knee ailment that affected teenagers) and didn t play seventh/eighth grade football. The 5-foot-8 Marek carried the ball only once as a freshman at the UW, then put together three consecutive 1,200-yard seasons. In danger of falling shy of 1,000 yards in 1974 after missing nearly three full games with injuries, Marek rushed for 704 yards in the final three games, including 304 and five touchdowns in a rout of Minnesota. His play earned him Sports Illustrated s national offensive back of the week honors. Marek was at the center of an April Fool s Day joke played by Wisconsin State Journal columnist Tom Butler in Butler wrote a tongue-in-cheek piece about moving the Big Ten s leading rusher to the defensive secondary for his senior season. The article ended with the phrase, April Fools! Unfortunately, wire service reporters did not make it to the last line, and called head coach John Jardine s house for confirmation. The AP eventually moved the story on its national wire for about a half-an-hour before the hoax was discovered. Motion W When Barry Alvarez came to Madison, he decided that the helmet logo needed to be updated to signal a new era in Wisconsin football. He entertained different designs in 1990 before Rayovac artist Rick Suchanek developed the Motion W, which included a tail at the back of the logo. Alvarez thought the tail was a bit much, but when it was removed, decided to go with it. The University bought the rights to the design, and the logo has been adopted by all other UW sports. O Dea, Pat One of several Wisconsin greats from the premodern era of college football is kicker Pat O Dea. The Australian-born O Dea came to Madison in 1896 to join his brother Andy, who was crew coach and football trainer. Known as the Kangaroo Kicker, O Dea brought a different style to the American game of football. He learned to play the Australian game where all punting and drop-kicking

287 was done on the run. O Dea drop-kicked a legendary 62-yard field goal vs. Northwestern during a heavy blizzard. After his playing days, he coached at Notre Dame and Missouri before moving to San Francisco. O Dea, who essentially had disappeared, was thought to have joined an Australian contingent which travelled through the country. Press releases surmised that he probably lies beneath an unmarked grave in France. The truth was, he had moved to California under the assumed name of Charles J. Mitchell, to escape the pressure of being a star ex-athlete. Probably, I was wrong, he said in an interview with San Francisco sportswriter Bill Leiser after the 17-year exile. I wanted to get away from my past. As Pat O Dea, I seemed very much just an ex-football player. I was very happy as Charles Mitchell for awhile. On, Wisconsin The tune was originally composed in 1909 by Chicago s William Purdy, and the words were written by Carl Beck. Purdy and Beck had been fraternity brothers at Hamilton College (Clinton, N.Y.) and were roommates in Chicago. Purdy was going to submit the song for a $100 prize that the University of Minnesota was offering for a new football song. When Beck heard the music, he offered to write words and suggested that Purdy offer it to Wisconsin, where Beck had once studied. The song was an instant hit on campus and spread throughout the world. It was especially popular with military bands. Some 2,500 schools have adopted the music and changed the words to suit their needs. On, Wisconsin was sung for the first time at the 1909 homecoming game vs. Minnesota. The music was adapted by current Band Director Michael Leckrone in The original version had been played virtually unchanged since its inception. I got a lot of flak for that, Leckrone said. The old version was one you had to wait on. I wanted to generate immediate reaction, so I stepped it up a bit. On Wisconsin, On Wisconsin Plunge right through that line, Run the ball clear down the field, boys Touchdown sure this time On Wisconsin, On Wisconsin Fight on for her fame, Fight, Fellows, Fight, Fight, Fight We ll win this game! Paul Bunyan's Axe The most-played rivalry in Division I football continues this fall when Wisconsin and Minnesota meet. The UW-UM series is the nation s oldest and has been played continuously for since 1890 (except for 1906). The game has alternated sites between the university campuses since Much prestige was always associated with the game, and the significance was emphasized with its place on the schedule. Between 1933 and 1982, the Wisconsin-Minnesota game was always the final regular-season contest for each school. The series took an added twist in 1948 when more than state bragging rights were on the line. After a 16-0 setback that season, the Wisconsin lettermen s group, the National W Club, presented Minnesota with an axe wielded by Paul Bunyan. He was the mythical giant of Midwestern lumber camps. Each year since, the winner of the annual battle between the Big Ten rivals is presented with the axe, complete with scores inscribed on the handle, for display on its campus. Slab of Bacon The Slab of Bacon trophy was the precursor to Paul Bunyan s Axe as the prize in the Wisconsin- Minnesota football series. Apparently, the trophy was presented to the winning school by a sorority from the losing institution. The trophy was discontinued in the 1940s and was discovered in a storage room at the UW Department of Athletics in It is currently housed in the football office at Wisconsin. We took home the bacon, Coach Barry Alvarez said, and kept it. Sculptures Two of the most significant figures in Wisconsin football history are permanent fixtures in front (Gate 1) of Camp Randall Stadium. Life-size sculptures of former head coach and current Director of Athletics Barry Alvarez and former player and Director of Athletics Pat Richter stand as reminders to all Badger fans of the roles the pair had in turning UW Athletics around during the 1990s. The silicon bronze Alvarez sculpture is six feet, one inch tall and weighs approximately 300 pounds. The sculptor was Lou Cella of Timeless Creations, Inc., who created the piece at The Studio of Rotblatt Amrany in Highwood, Ill. The sculpture of Richter was done by Sean M. Bell, also at The Studio of Rotblatt Amrany. Varsity The traditional arm-waving at the end of the song, Varsity, was the 1934 brainstorm of band leader Ray Dvorak. He saw Pennsylvania students wave their caps after losing a game. Dvorak later instructed Wisconsin students to salute UW President Glenn Frank after each game. Var-sity! Var-sity! U-rah-rah! Wisconsin! Praise to thee we sing Praise to thee our Alma Mater U-rah-rah, Wisconsin!

288 Camp Randall Stadium Camp Randall History The centerpiece of Wisconsin athletics, Camp Randall Stadium has been at the heart of the university since Home to the Wisconsin Badger football team, the most recent renovation of the stadium was completed in 2005, offering the teams and fans a state of the art football experience. Harboring the popular bowl shape structure, Camp Randall is one of the nation s oldest and most historic stadiums. Camp Randall is the fourth-oldest stadium among NCAA Bowl Subdivision schools. Only Georgia Tech, Mississippi State and Cincinnati are older. In terms of capacity, the stadium is the 17th-largest in the nation and is the fourth-largest in the Big Ten. Prior to its use as a football stadium, the land was used for the training of Wisconsin troops during wartime, and was named after Wisconsin s first wartime governor, Alexander W. Randall. In the early days of the state of Wisconsin, the 50-acre plot bounded by University Avenue, Breese Terrace, Monroe Street and North Randall was owned by the Wisconsin State Agricultural Society. State Fairs, races, and other community events were held where the present day stadium rests. After the Civil War began escalating, the society donated the land to the state to use as a training ground for troops. Soldiers first moved into the area on May 1, In the matter of a year, more than 70,000 of the state s troops were trained there at one time or another. In 1862, sick and wounded Confederate soldiers were held at Camp Randall and those that perished were laid to rest on Madison s west side. The area known as soldier s rest is the northernmost confederate cemetery in the United States. In 1893 the land was going to be put up for sale for building lots, but the war veterans sounded their voice, and the state legislature purchased the land from a group of Madison business owners for $25,000. The land was immediately turned over to the university. The famous Memorial Arch was constructed in 1911 at the same price that the land was purchased for. The cannons that are still present today were mounted in During WWI and WWII troops were again stationed at the site for training before being sent abroad to defend the United States. The local veteran s group proceeded to write a petition to the Wisconsin Board of Regents in hopes to keep the Camp Randall title for the field. Their petition was granted and the site was first used for athletic events in 1894 as track and field events took place. The first football game was played at the site the following year. For the first 20 years of use, the stadium was occupied with rented bleachers on the east and west sides that were able to hold around 3,000 people. There are reports that nearly 15,000 people would regularly attend football games filling in the standing room surrounding the field. Work began in 1915 after seven years of petitioning to the state legislature in order to receive the necessary funds to construct a permanent football stadium. The work was slow and immediately fell behind schedule. While playing Minnesota during the fall of 1915, the east-side bleachers collapsed and injured hundreds of spectators. The accident caught the attention of the legislature and the new concrete seating was soon under construction. The first section of seating was built on the hill along Breese Terrace. The hill was used as the foundation for the bleacher section on the west side of the playing surface. The 40 rows of bleachers, seating close to 10,000 fans, were ready in time for the 1917 opener against Beloit. The stadium wasn t officially dedicated until the homecoming game against Minnesota on November 3, The Badgers beat the Gophers 34-0 in front of a capacity of 10,000 fans. Over the next seven years, the stadium gradually removed the temporary wooden bleachers and added concrete seats. In 1924, the capacity had reached 33,000 and there were OLDEST STADIUMS Nation s Oldest Bowl Subdivision Stadiums* 1.

Over the next 15 years, more and more pieces were added as money became available. In 1940, more seating was installed and the seating capac

289 ity had grown to 45,000 with the UW Field House enclosing the south end of the field. An interesting use of the stadium in the 1940s was the inclusion of dormitories for students and military personnel. The Works Progress Administration, initiated by President Franklin Roosevelt to help pull the nation out of depression, constructed the dorms underneath the east bleachers. There was enough room for 150 men to live, as well as a rifle range and boxing and wrestling rooms. The dorms were initially occupied by naval trainees and, after the war, the dorms were occupied by student veterans. The living quarters were named the Schreiner and Baumann houses in honor of two UW students that were killed in Okinawa during WWII. The dorms were closed in 1951 and converted into offices for the extension department and later became the home to the athletic and military departments. In 1950, plans for adding an additional 10,000 seats began. At the cost of $569,000 the bleachers in the north end were to be raised to the same level as those in the west and east sides. The project took over a year due to material shortages after the war and an extremely harsh winter. The seats were completed in 1951 and the stadium was now able to hold 55,000 people, but was still one of the smallest in the Big Ten. After near capacity s over the next few seasons, the Board of Regents decided to lower the field and add 10,000 more seats. These new seats would eliminate the track and most of the new seats would be placed along the sidelines. By 1958, the $482,000 project was completed and the capacity had increased to 63,710. The stadium proved adequate during the 1950s and early 1960s. In 1964, the regents decided to add more seating after a number of successful seasons had brought more and more people to the stadium. This time, the plan was to go up. The second deck along the west side was to be constructed with the addition of a press box (freeing up more seats in the bleachers). The project was completed in time for the 1965 season and brought the capacity up to 77,745. Camp Randall remained virtually untouched for over 35 years until the most recent renovation began in The $109.5 million project was completed in 2005 raising the capacity to where it currently rests at 80,321. Recent additions include the premium seating structure above the east side bleachers, the new Kellner Hall office building, the Athletic Operations Building, the football offices, the McGinnis Family Athletic Ticket Office, new visiting team lockers, the Camp Randall Media Room, and renovations and upgrades to the press box. The new structure on the east side includes 72 suites, 337 club seats and 590 varsity indoor seats. The Communications Center built in 1965 is now remodeled and includes areas for media, game personnel and university department officials and was renamed the Evjue Communications Center after the recent renovation. Kellner Hall, which is attached to the east bleachers and the UW Field House, is home to the Athletic Department and Ticket Office. Since its inception, Camp Randall has seen three different playing surfaces. From 1917 to 1989, the surface was a natural grass playing field. In 1990, artificial turf was installed, and a computerized scoreboard was added in During the recent renovation two video replay scoreboards and a new sound system were installed. In 2004, the turf was replaced with a rubber composite system installed by FieldTurf. That field was replaced with a new FieldTurf surface prior to the 2012 season. Further renovations prior to the 2013 season saw both scoreboards above the north end zone and attached to Kellner Hall replaced with larger, high-definition displays. Camp Randall is one of college football s most storied stadiums with a rich history of service and over 90 years of football. Camp Randall is not solely used by the Wisconsin football team. Since 1982, all WIAA state football championship games have been held at the stadium. Camp Randall has also played host to numerous outdoor concerts, the Drum Corps International, Green Bay Packers exhibition games and other large public events

Walk-on sophomore, Jim Leonhard, had two interceptions breaking the school record for picks in a season (11). 13. Nov. 6, 1993 Wisconsin 14, Ohio St. 14 One week after the tragic stampede of the student section at Camp Randall, the Badgers welcomed No. 3 Ohio State to Madison. The Buckeyes were undefeated on the season and had a 14-game regular season unbeaten streak dating back to the previous year. The Buckeyes blocked Rick Schnetzky s game-winning field goal as time expired to end the game in a tie. The Badgers and Buckeyes went on to share the Big Ten title that season, and Wisconsin proceeded to beat UCLA in the Rose Bowl. 12. Nov. 19, 1966 Wisconsin 7, Minnesota 6 Head coach Milt Bruhn won his final game as coach after resigning the Monday before. Bruhn ended his career with a record including two Big Ten titles. The Badgers didn t win another game over their next 23 tries, spanning more than two seasons. 11. Oct. 10, 1998 Wisconsin 31, Purdue 24 House of Pain s Jump Around made its debut between the third and fourth quarters of the night game against the Boilermakers on Homecoming. Purdue quarterback, Drew Brees, set an NCAA

291 mark with 83 pass attempts and tied the completion mark of 55 while amassing 494 yards through the air. 10. Oct. 23, 1982 Wisconsin 28, Illinois 29 The only loss in the countdown was overshadowed by the trick play called by famous Wisconsin coach, Dave McClain. QB Randy Wright threw a lateral bounce pass to receiver Al Toon behind the line of scrimmage who then pump faked and found a wide-open tight end, Jeff Nault, for the touchdown. 9. Nov. 20, 1954 Wisconsin 27, Minnesota Heisman Trophy winner, Alan Ameche, was carried off the field after his final home game as a Badger on senior day.

Nov. 21, 1998 Wisconsin 24, Penn State 3 Entering the game, the Badgers needed Ohio State to beat Michigan as well as win their own game against Penn State to win the Big Ten. Late in the first quarter, the OSU/Michigan game result was shown, giving new life to the Badgers as they had a chance to win the Big Ten after a three-way tie with OSU and Michigan. The Badgers turned it on during the second quarter to put the game out of reach and went on to earn their fifth Rose Bowl appearance. 2. Oct. 31, 1942 Wisconsin 17, Ohio St. 7 The sixth-ranked Badgers earned their first win over a top-ranked opponent against Ohio State.

Sept. 21, 1974 Wisconsin 21, Nebraska 20 This win was head coach, John Jardine s, biggest by far. The game was part of Jardine s only winning season at the helm of the Badgers. The upset of fourth-ranked Nebraska was one of the biggest wins in school history. Badger receiver, Jeff Mack, scored the game-winning 77-yard touchdown with 3:29 left. 6. Oct. 11, 1969 Wisconsin 23, Iowa 17 The win marked the first Wisconsin victory in the last 23 games.
